Any experience I had when Lori was on the road promoting, was a decrease in stock price, as well as a gypsy swap or two, that saw Lori selling shares to someone privately, rather than letting this private buyer, buy the shares on the open market, lending support to a falling stock price.

So please, do not try to justify a conglomerate expenditure of travel, promotion, shareholder communication,etc, that may equal as high as $7000 per day, for extended periods, quite easily a year or more, if not that high, then $3000 per day and more. No prudent and competent exploration company spends this much per day/year on these types of expenditures, its absolutely preposterous. Perhaps she can justify it, if she can, then I suggest that she does very soon.

And, as far as you saying that the stock would only have ever reached around .50 without promotion, because all we had was some pictures of anomalies, perhaps you are forgetting the amazing miningstockreport which easily saw/predicted a $3.50 share price? . That report, when read in its full context, clearly defines many many ounces of gold possible, when facts are considered, not rumours.
